Hi All-
I've been weighing my options on how to best power my fridge for short trips, and maybe a year or two ago, someone on the forum turned me on to this product from Aspect Solar. After more back and forth and research, I finally settled onto this Energy bar as how I wanted to proceed, and started tracking the price on amazon. It is currently at $161 for the 225 model (the diamond in the rough for price/features imho), and if the past is any indication, will jump back up pretty soon. I happily snagged one at $180.
A quick summary as to why I like it, maybe for someone less in the know than myself:
-this energybar will power my ARB 50qt for almost 24 hours (empty, and without precooling it...)
-lifepo4 batteries won't off gas and they won't suffer from complete depletion
-lightweight and smaller form factor than your average automotive battery
-built in inverter and usb ports are icing on the cake
-the 12v charger from the same company provides a convenient on the road recharging solution
Over the past couple years since I have joined, I have spent many any hour reading the countless expo threads on similar topics, so a big thank you to all of those who have contributed to my education here!
